A girl will be on a cruise ship or on tour package. Slavers will pay a good looking, smooth talking, polite, clean cut guy to basically be what is termed a “barker” or a “steer”.

They’ll pick out a set of girls, and they’ll work them. Find out how trusting, how naive, how street smart, how connected they are, how much money they’re worth, what is their families financial situations, how eager is this person to please someone else(ie easy to acquiesce).

Out of that pool of girls, they may pick one. They may wait.

If they pick one, they’ll work that girl, and try to seduce her or at least get her where they can talk alone and offer her a drink- they need to do this in the day or days leading up to a port of call. They’ll spike a drink with midazolam or another benzodiazapine or sedative- barbiturates are still commonly available offshore- so sometimes they’ll use those.

Another guy will come in here, he’s also on the boat. He’s someone in either security, maintenance, or planning. He takes the girl, who will be closed to passed out or even passed out. He gets her off ship and hands her off to slaver’s enforcer. The enforcer decides if he wants to buy her- based on her looks, based on the information the steer picked up, etc. The more easy to make her disappear and if she is good looking- they’ll pay anywhere from $400 for a girl all the way to $10,000. It gets split between the steer and the inside man.

If she is too high risk(has money, connections, something worries the enforcer)- they’ll give her back to the inside man and the inside man will kill her and get rid of her body. Some operations, it is expected that if the enforcer rejects a girl, he helps in getting rid of her. In addition to being a serial killer, Joran Vander Sloot was basically alternating between being a steer and being the “inside” guy- the hand off guy. I’m just giving you a frame of reference example.

From there, the enforcer is going to take a girl out in the country or to somewhere in a ghetto/shantytown/favilla. The girl will be threatened, she will be beaten, yelled at, and she will be raped. This is referred to as training. Other men, multiple men will rape her. This is her training.

She will then be given or forcibly administered sedatives, opiates, and either amphetamines or cocaine.

I remember once when my dad gave me money to pay the electricity bill but instead I bought a raffle ticket for a brand new car. When I got home, I explained to my dad what I did and he beat the crap out of me. But the next day,when my dad woke up and opened the door, outside my house was a brand new car. We all cried especially me, because the car was from the electricity company, they were there to cut off the electricity, my dad beat the crap out of me again

How does alcohol kill brain cells and does it actually affect your cognitive ability in the long run?

Alcohol is metabolized in the liver by alcohol dehydrogenase enzymes into a much, much more harmful molecule, acetaldehyde. Not only does this process produce a more harmful molecule, but it also eats through the body’s supply of NAD+, an important player in the Krebs cycle for generating energy. So your body has depleted its energy stores to create a deadly toxin.

Acetaldehyde then wreaks havoc in your body. It causes the liver to produce malondialdehyde, a highly reactive molecule that basically floats around your body throwing high-energy, non spin paired electrons into DNA, neurons, and literally any and every tissue in your body. This causes damage, making it carcinogenic and neurotoxic, as well as hepatotoxic and harmful for the kidneys, heart, pancreas, reproductive system, digestive tract, …rest of the body… Then to top it all off, acetaldehyde consumes more NAD+ to finally be made into the less harmful molecule acetate.

With a great lack of NAD+ and many key enzymes that are busy metabolizing alcohol, harmful metabolites begin to accumulate in the body. Catalase that would normally break down H2O2 is too busy breaking down alcohol, so the H2O2 accumulates, creating more free radical electrons and damage. Your body battles this oxidative stress with antioxidants like vitamin B and C. Antioxidants are then depleted. More oxidative stress. More damage. Less energy. Less antioxidants. Damage to all tissues ensues.
